This is my third morning in Haiti. We are having a blessed trip. Last night we worshiped with the Santos church that meets by Roberta's home. About 250 folks were there and it was good to see many friends. Afterward, we got to view the school room that Roberta's boys built over the small guesthouse behind her home. It's a great space and the children are enjoying it separated from their living space. Then we went inside to see the changes they've been working on for the kitchen. It's much bigger now and has allowed them to install a large commercial stove. Pretty nice to have with 22 children wouldn't you say? I hope to get pics to share on Sunday.
Today the rest of the team should land about 4pm and we'll be a pretty full house. Except for the adult vitamins they're bringing with them, our medicine bins will be ready by the time they get here for our first day of clinic on Friday.
I realized I forgot to tell you about our trip home from the airport! First of all, they've improved the baggage area and the exit outside; which was such a blessing! Then, as we headed home, there were many signs of Haitians working. Rubble has been broken up in many areas and piled along the edge of the roads. There were men working to scoop up garbage to be hauled away. Perhaps it sounds weird to be excited over such things, but here, these are signs of people living with hope! Another good thing was to see one of the larger grocery stores had been repaired and reopened about two weeks ago.
Thank you all for letting me share some of my experiences with you and especially thank you for your prayers!
Because of Christ,
Jeanne
